I then shall live

I then shall live as one who's been forgiven.I'll walk with joy to know my debts are paid.I know my name is clear before my Father;I am His child and I am not afraid.So, greatly pardoned, I'll forgive my brother;The law of love I gladly will obey.

I then shall live as one who's learned compassion.I've been so loved, that I'll risk loving too.I know how fear builds walls instead of bridges;I'll dare to see another's point of view.And when relationships demand commitment,Then I'll be there to care and follow through.

Your Kingdom come around and through and in me;Your power and glory, let them shine through me.Your Hallowed Name, O may I bear with honor,And may Your living Kingdom come in me.The Bread of Life, O may I share with honor,And may You feed a hungry world through me.
